Are there any girls names that sound 'snooty' or snobbish to you? I can think of boys names that are like this, although they're mainly surnames-as-firstnames types e.g. Warner, Emerson, Chandler, but nothing really springs to mind for girls names. Except maybe Angelica/Angelique.

I worry that two of my favourites, Arabella and Henrietta, sound snobbish.

I think length adds to the snoot factor for girls names, somehow.

It seems that different names sound snooty to different people. Jessica, Nicole and Elizabeth, three names mentioned so far as being snooty, i think are very normal, unpretentious names with no such connotations.

Anything ending in -issa or -essa (aside from Tessa, which I love) is snooty-sounding to me. Examples:

Vanessa
Clarissa
Melissa

Rachel, Raquel, and other variations are snooty to me b/c of association.

Dreama
Angelica (and variations)

Hyphenated/double first names, except those with Mary first (because those just remind me of all my mom's friends from her Catholic school days):
Sarah Catherine, Julie Beth, Hannah Kate, etc.

Sadly, around here, all of the really snobbish girls have traditional names. There's a really large, very expensive all-girl prep school here. I interviewed there and all the names were really similar and a lot of them traditional. There were a lot of the double first names, plus stuff like Elle, etc. It's a nice name, but it seems like every "rich bitch" I know has Katherine as part of her name.

It's a fine, fine line between snooty and wanna-be. So many names are adopted across societies, so that nothing truly snooty stays that way for long. This is also why girls get named those upmarket boy names you mentioned.

I see Angelica, Angelique, Ariana and Jacqueline as about as downmarket as can be.
